    Default Are you guys collecting the Xbox 360 Faceplates?

    I am getting them when I can and was just wondering if others on the board are collecting them? If so, what do you think about the new Bioshock plate? They only made 5100, so I am figuring the value will only go up. I was just given one by a Gamestop manager of a store I frequent. Now I have to see if I can get that Blue Dragon one..........

    I'm picking up the ones i think are cool, E305, Bioshock, "I Made This", and one signed by the hardware development team.

    I'll probably pick up the chromehounds one out of japan, but i'm not really going after the whole set...

    If they weren't cancelled I think the Eternal Sonata ones would have been worth something. They were really high quality face plates and were only available through pre-order, oh well, maybe they might actually sell these separately

    Thinking about it, since I collect the 360 library...

    There's a lot out there though.
    Great to deal with: Leonk, AdamG, Cheesystick, DigitalPress, ButtaSuperb, Hydr0x, Darth Vader, Gary Gnu, Portnoyd, NexWave, Postermen, Kaine23, ARCZero, kai123, Buyatari, Minilek, DREW, bighab, AlanD, Flack

    I started to collect faceplates and then it just got boring to me. I just couldnt get into them I guess. The only two I have left are The Outfit and Full Auto.

    I think the rarest of the older ones is a Quake IV faceplate that was only released in Germany AFAIK. No one wants it though so you can get it cheaply.

    I got the Bioshock one and it's totally rad, I just wish it wasn't designed for a vertical 360.

    Damn gamestop, I work at a Game Crazy and we had been given news that the face plates were cancelled. I was hoping it wouldn't be a Gamestop exclusive, but I guess they are. Bah that sucks, I'm not buying it from Gamestop.

    And they're selling for a good amount, too. They're not in all of the stores yet. I've checked.

    Good thing I ordered 5 copies of Eternal Sonata. I wanted those. If they were cancelled I'd be pissed.
